Especial telegram to tho Dispatch.l
CAPE CHARLES, VA, December o.
Richard Willis (colored), who was shot
on Friday night by Sergeant Evans While
attempting to escape arrest, died on
yesterday morning from the effects of
the wound. A coroner's jury was sum-
moned to-day and held an inquest over
the remains. The examination of the
witnesses resulted in the arrest OF the
sergeant, who was released on bail
for his appearance at the pre-
liminary hearing to be held on Satur-
day next. The Town Council will
secure the services Of eminent coun-
sci to defend the sergeant, as they are
of the opinion that he was in the faithful
discharge of his duty when the shooting
occurred. The colored people are much
enraged, and violent threats have been
made against the life of the sergeant.
Mr.. McCubbin, the deputy who was
summoned TO assist in the arrest OF the
parties to the disturbance prior to the
shooting, is much more seriously injured
than was supposed, and at this writing
is in a critical condition. 1t is feared
that lockjaw will set in, as his jaws and
neck are now rigid. His deposition is
being taken by the coroner to be used
for the defence in case of his death.
An unknown man was found in the
streets to-day who was in an insane con-
diton. He was taken into custody, and
will be sent to the Jail in Eastville for
safekeeping until some further informa-
ton can be found about him.

EAsTvILLE, VA, December 5.-Hon.
Thomas c. WaIston, a prominent and
well-known lawyer Of this county, is
critically i'll in Richmond with blood
poisoning and pneumonia. The cause
Of this complication OF diseases is due
to the fact OF his having the root of a
tooth broken off while it was being ex-
tracicd. A telegram was received here
to-day from Richmond stating that he
was sinking rapidly, and could not pos
sibly live over twenty-four hours. His
death will be a severe loss to this COM
munity, as he had a large and paying
practice. He was a member of the
State Senate for four years from 1877,
and had been prominently mentioned
lately as the next candidate for Congress
from the First district.
